So now that I'm a US citizen, I need to go renounce my Russian citizenship. To do so, you have to have a non-expired Russian passport. Since my passport expired last month, I now have to go to the Russian Consulate in New York City and apply for a Russian passport. Once they send me the passport, I have to go back to the Russian Consulate, give them back their passport, and renounce my citizenship.
All in all, I think the situation is an absolute win for bureaucracies everywhere.
